Hi all, Sorry for any problems, but there was a bug in the previously announced VB-ZOOM version that prevented special characters such as &, <, and > from being properly encoded before they were used in the MARC XML. I have a new version, 1.2c1.1.1, on SourceForge which should fix the problem. You should probably uninstall the old version before installing this one. Kind regards, Tom Thomas G.
